Sorry if this was already posted or old news. I didn’t use the search function because I didn’t care that much.

Anyway, an American man at a museums Ugly Sweater party entered the apparently very non secured teracotta soldier exhibit and just snapped a thumb off as a souvenir.

Chinese officials express harsh condemnation of the act and want severe justice. I’m probably not wanting as severe of justice as they want, but I otherwise agree. Let’s make an example of this jerk.

What a dink. Let China have him, i don't care.
 
This thumb will be the catalyst for Chinas invasion of the USA
 
Gotta be a serious p.o.s to vandalize something like that.

3-5 years in prison and restitution seems fitting.

They’ve already started the invasion. Check your phone and electronics. They’re buying land everywhere.

He'll learn not to mess with historical artifacts after 3 years in a Chinese labor camp.
 
"The museumgoer allegedly took the clay digit to his home in Bear, Delaware, as a souvenir. He is now accused of theft of an artwork from a museum, concealment of the artwork and interstate transportation of stolen property, according to The New York Times."

"The vandalized statue is worth quite a sum: $4.5 million."



that was.......not smart.
 
Jailed for the max allowable.
 
Had a chance to visit the exhibition when it was at the Chicago museum.
This person should be handed over to china.
